Country music superstars may share the spotlight, but their lives behind the scenes can look very different.
Drew Baldridge, who recently released his album, "FARM FAITH FAMILY," got a front-row seat to both worlds — from Luke Bryan's down-home lifestyle to Jelly Roll's jam-packed backstage scene, where the next unexpected guest could be just around the corner.
In an interview with Fox News Digital, Baldridge shared details about what the country hitmakers are really like offstage, revealing why Bryan's humble roots and devotion to his family have stuck with him — and why Jelly Roll's backstage operation is anything but predictable.
When it comes to the wildest backstage setup in country music, Baldridge knows who gets his vote.
"Oh man, I don't know what the weirdest rider thing is, but Jelly probably has the wildest backstage, because you just never know who's going to be there," he said.
According to Baldridge, Jelly Roll’s backstage crowd can rival the audience out front.

"I mean, you walk in … it is like a stadium full of people out front, but there's a stadium full of people in the back," he said.

The singer said Jelly Roll's welcoming nature attracts all kinds of guests, including influencers looking to capture extra content after the show.
"My goodness, this guy is always on," Baldridge said. "And always has just an entourage of people, that is for sure."

Meanwhile, Bryan’s offstage life offers a different kind of surprise, Baldridge said.
"Luke is just like one of my buddies I would grow up with," he said, adding that fame has not altered the superstar's personality.
"You'd think all the success that he had that he would change who he is or anything, but that dude's just a country boy."
Baldridge said he recently visited Bryan for a dove-hunting trip, describing the experience as an afternoon spent with an old friend.
He said Bryan’s commitment to his family made an even bigger impression, particularly his determination to attend his sons’ football games despite his busy touring schedule.
"Watching him never miss one of his son's football games, flying home and even taking off Friday night to make sure he was at his boy's game, not playing a show that night – that's been really cool, I think," Baldridge said.
The experience was especially meaningful because Bryan had been one of Baldridge's musical heroes since he was a teenager.
"Oh dang, he's just a country boy like I am, you know?" he said.
Baldridge is also embracing family life with two young children of his own, saying fatherhood has changed his perspective as he balances touring and recording.
"Definitely, family has changed the most. I have a five-month-old and a three-year-old," he said.

His 16-track major-label debut, "FARM FAITH FAMILY," reflects the three values that have shaped his life, with the album divided into sections devoted to farm life, faith and family.
The project includes "Let ‘Em," a song about his sons, and "A Man Don't," which explores his views on manhood, faith and marriage.

Baldridge told Fox News Digital welcoming another child has made balancing his career and responsibilities at home a daily learning experience.
"That has definitely been a whirlwind, balancing this musical career and also the family life of being a dad and a husband and figuring that out every day," he said.
Baldridge broke through with "She's Somebody's Daughter," an RIAA Platinum-certified hit that reached No. 1 on the Country Aircheck/Mediabase chart and No. 3 on Billboard's Country Airplay chart.
According to Baldridge, the song has generated more than 2 billion streams and impressions and earned recognition from the Nashville Songwriters Association International as one of its "10 Songs I Wish I'd Written."
